I'm not sure why someone would be checking to see is others have password protected their races. But, I have downloaded the wrong file and attempted to open it before so I based my vote on that scenario rather than that I was systematically attempting to open each player's file.

So, I agree with mlaub because it was not stipulated that the host is not playing. I would inform the player by email, rather than in-game mail, if that were a possibility. I'd delete the .M# file from my system.

Here is another and similar ethical conundrum:
An ally gives you his password so that you can fill in for him while he is on vacation. After he comes back you download his file and he has not changed the password. Do you tell him, or in this case is it his responsibility to change the password that he gave you?
